who’s to say they won’t make their own eventually? they have the most data out of everyone & the budget to do it. i definitely see the difference in quality of answers though. i no longer use google for coding related issues aside from getting documentation pages

They already did, it's called lamda. They didn't release it because it's insanely difficult to control and censor. A few of its creators quit and started characterai and ran headfirst into the same unresolvable problem.

Basically chai is too powerful to censor and censoring it made it so bad many of it's users just quit due to concerns over data.

google's engineers came up with the algorithm that makes gpt-* possible. they have several alternative network architectures that have their own strengths and weaknesses.

google is well aware of chatgpt taking marketshare but they're eyeing on something bigger, considering almost every household has their smart assistants and devices. i know how far ahead google thinks. i've done engineering for them.

Ye their new thing is supposed to be "Sparrow" from what I heard, will see if it's any good whenever it's out. The issue of the difficulty of censorship seems to be present in all LLM models.

they also have various image generation AIs that work totally different than the diffusion models (dalle/stable diffusion) which i doubt they'll release to public anytime soon.

I've seen demos if sparrow, frankly it is awful. Maybe since then they have improved it - needs the censorship eased off quite a bit.

I’d love to be a fly on the wall at their headquarters. They’re gonna have to release the genie soon.

they pulled the fire alarm a few weeks ago. if you recall the articles about google red alert or some such thing. They are in trouble because they are a monopoly and every eye that goes to cgpt or another upstart is one less eye they get to show ads to. So for those that stick around that means more ads. then those folks are like wtf why so many ads ill try cgpt maybe its better. and so on. There is no way they get out of this without taking a significant hit. get ready to start paying for all that free stuff they give you because they are going to try to find revenue elsewhere.

Doubt it, Google has every resource to come up with a similar tool and the ability to richly integrate it with all their existing services. Google isn’t going anywhere lmao

No offense but you're probably one of the few, at least on this sub. Google (Alphabet if we're being pedantic) is one of the largest companies in the world, for it to be upended by Chat GPT shows just how fast AI technology's accelerating.

Paul Buchheit (Gmail creator) should know better than most about the risk posed to Google, he created AdSense which is their main profit driver.

I guess maybe what you're saying is you don't care if Google themselves go under? Personally, for all their faults I think that'd be a bit of a travesty, they're one of the biggest investors in AI and have some of the best resources to develop it.

Indeed. The company might not be very ethical nowadays, but if you read about their chip designing AI for example.... well its super impressive.
